East Barlow Trail Road closure to continue through Nov. 18

Due to continued work to restore the embankment at milepost 6 on East Barlow Trail Road, a road closure will continue through Nov. 18 at 5 p.m.

From Oct. 31 through Nov. 18, the closure will be in effect 24/7 and affect emergency vehicles, local residents and all others. All traffic will be required to follow detour routes.

The embankment was damaged by the Sandy River during storms in January 2011. The damage left approximately 360 feet of East Barlow Trail Road vulnerable to erosion and potential destruction in a future storm.
